Gene effect for protein content in winter wheat
1996
Kraljevic-Balalic, M. (University of Novi Sad (Yugoslavia). Faculty of Agriculture)
The study was conducted to determine the inheritance, gene action and combining ability in 5 x 5 diallel wheat crosses. The parents and F1 were analysed for soluble leaf protein content and grain protein content. The cultivars and their F1 hybrids differed significantly in both examined characters. It was established that general combining ability (GCA) variances were highly significant for both characters. For soluble leaf protein content there was a preponderance of additive gene action, and for grain protein content a preponderance of non-additive gene action. Atlas 66 was a good general combiner for both characters.
